New Mexico Diminished Value

In New Mexico, the statute of limitations on torts is 4 years, this means that you need to file suit against the at fault driver within 4 years of the accident.

If the insurance company is offering you an unfair loss in value amount, you need to hire an independent appraiser to rebut their valuation.

You can also escalate the claim by contacting the New Mexico Insurance Commissioner.
